Double T5HO for 10g nano?

So I have decided to work my way into the salt world of the aquarium hobby. Would a double T5HO fixture be good for a 10g nano? I am planning on have fish and soft coral. Would that be too much light? not enought? or just right?

I'm really not familiar with T5 lighting so I wouldn't know if its too much. But I am very familiar with heat issues in nano tanks. This is something u have to be very careful of. LED's are the way a lot of people end up taking. Because most other lighting that is sufficient to grow corals, heat a nano quickly. Many headaches arise fm this often overlooked problem
